Man sends drone to North Korea and manages to capture never-before-seen images; see the photos

A man shared some never-before-seen images of North Korea after managing to capture the photos with a drone sent from China.

The photos from the most secretive country in the world were shared on Reddit, where the anonymous man revealed that he managed to send the drone across the border while he was in China.

The images, taken from a high perspective, show the drone flying over a metropolitan area. The post quickly caught the attention of users who were curious to get some details about such a secretive country.

The post, made a year ago, has already accumulated more than 145,000 upvotes. In the comments, internet users shared their opinions, including that the streets in the images appear eerily empty, especially for what looks like a large city.

“Am I traveling, or is there no street drainage? Definitely no traffic lights. It looks like a concrete model of a city,” analyzed one user. “It’s interesting how the mysterious valley exists for inanimate things too. This is close enough to being a real city that it’s disturbing,” reflected another.

However, many of the comments turned their attention not to the photos, but to the man who took them. “This looks like a dangerous game,” warned a Reddit user. “The guy infiltrated North Korea by himself,” joked another.
